dc.description.abstract |
In South Africa, socio-economic inequality has a profound negative impact on various
socio-economic levels, including education and the success of many young adults and
their career aspirations (Buthelezi et al., 2009; Sayed & Van Niekerk, 2017). Therefore,
this study aimed at exploring the influence of the educational background and socioeconomic
status of parents on the career aspirations of young adults. A qualitative
study was employed to explore the unique lived experiences of the participants. The
focal point of the study was the process young adults follow towards formulating their
career aspirations. Semi-structured interviews were conducted as a data collection
method. The aims of the study required purposive sampling as a method to analyse
the data and content analysis was used to extract themes and sub-themes. The study
found that the educational background and socio-economic status of parents inform
how much access young adults have to knowledge and resources and would increase
their confidence and possibility to pursue their career aspirations. Recommendations
were made to organisations, industrial and organisational psychologists, and career
counsellors on how to best support young adults and come up with initiatives that could
be implemented in their journeys towards becoming fulfilled employees. |

ENingizimu Afrika, ukungalingani kwezenhlalisano yabantu nakwezomnotho
kunemiphumela emibiki kakhulu kumazinga ehlukene kubantu nakwezomnotho,
okubandakanya ezemfundo kanye nempumelelo yabantu abasha abaningi kanye
nezintshisekelo zabo ngama-career (Buthelezi et al., 2009; Sayed & Van Niekerk,
2017). Ngakho-ke, lolu cwaningo lunenhloso yokuqhwanda ngomthelela womsusa
kwizimo zabazali kwezemfundo kanye nezimo zenhlalisano yabantu nakwezomnotho
kwizintshisekelo zama-career zabantu abasha. Kusetshenziswe ucwaningo lwenqubo
ye-qualitative ukuqhwanda ngezipiliyoni zabantu ababambe iqhaza. Ucwaningo lugxile
kakhulu kwiprosese elandelwa ngabantu abasha ekwenzeni izintshisekelo zamacareer
abo. Kusetshenziswa ama-semi-structured interviews njengemethodi yokuqoqa
ulwazi. Inhloso yocwaningo ibidinga ukwenza i-purposive sampling njengemethodi
yokuhlaziya ulwazi kanti futhi nokuhlaziya ingqikithi yodaba ukucaphuma ama-theme
nama sub-theme noma izihloko nezihlokwana. Ucwaningo luthole ukuthi imvelaphi
yezemfundo kanye nesimo sabazali kwezenhlalisano yabantu nezomnotho
kuyisakhelo sempumelelo enkulu yokuthi abantu abasha bafinyelela kangakanani
kulwazi kanye nemithombo yosizo, kanye nokwenyusa ukuzithemba kwabo kanye
namathuba okulandelela izintshisekelo zama-career abo. Kwenziwe izincomo
kwizinhlangano, ama-industrial and organisational psychologist, kanye nabeluleki
ngama-career ukuthi bangasekela kancono kanjani abantu abasha, kanye
nokuqhamuka nezindlela zokubasiza kuhambo lwabo lokuba ngabasebenzi
abanempumelelo. |
